into the anctrines of tyraral and submission when entrusted with the public sway. The whole course of the Greek revolution has been marked by fraud, ra pine, and deceit, and thus a cause as holy and as righteous as ever people maintained against the odious and barbarous tyranny of their conquerors, is brought into scandal and disgrace ; made to appear no thing but the struggles of a set of wretches to enrich themselves at any expense of public property, public benefit, or public character. The disasters of the Turkish army were exaggerated into signal de feats, whilst the smallest successes of the Greeks were magnified into important victories ; and even the very grossest falsehoods were invented to cover the designs of their worthless instigators, and to keep alive the enthusiasm of the public. The defence of Mis solonghi was extolled to the skies, as unparalleled in the annals of history, and the by-gone heroes of ancient Greece were raked from the grave to serve as comparisons for her modern captains. It was not sufficient in the eyes of these Loan Contractors, that the Greeks should be successful, they must be emi nently victorious ; that the Turks should be worsted, they must be sivally defeated ; until at last the real friends of the creeks were ashamed to talk of their successes, because when the truth was known, in corn parison to the inflated accounts, they became apparent of but little value. ,„ The late exposures, lict%Ser, that hays, taken place in reference to the Gree kln aya withdrawn the masks from the faces of these preisended friends of free dom, and display them befosa the world in all the na 'five hideousness of narrow-minded money brokers and public disturbers. It shows the advantage of the Greeks, and the restoration of their liberties, were but 11 ,eeobdary obj ec t s inithe minds of these m en , an d t h at these expressions were adopted only as a kind of stalking horse by which they might the more readily Pillage the public. How successfully these abominable artifices have been practised, the before-mentioned ex osures but too plainly evince. Every day adds to the lists of the fraud already known, and new names are hourly brought to light, as participating in the plun der of the unhappy Greeks ; and we find amongst these names those of persons whose actions in another place, however perplexing, we had hoped proceeded from principles of public spirit and unimpeachable integrity of c h aracter. How grievous is it to England to find her senators amongst the spoilers of the strug glers for lib er t y , to see them twisting and turning through the mazes of fraud, prostituting their charac ters as representatives of the people of Eng land, and sanctioning, by their presence and names, s every species of the most outrageous dishonesty and unmitigated falsehood ? With what face can such Neo appear in their scats in the Legislative Council, Protesting airm • st the extravagance of the public ex- Penditure, raising their voices against the taxation of the peopl e , an d a l most impug,ning the h ones ty o f every member of the KING'S Administration ? With what f ace , we ask, can these men appear in such places 'for such purposes, when thus stigmatized with fraud, and marked as the sons of meanness and of rapine ? These exposures, however will furnish su bj ect f or deep cons id erat i on to the friends of rational liberty and established governments, and we trust a hint or two Islay be taken from these events to keep down that revolutionary spirit which seems to be the characteristic of the age. One really would have supposed that, with liberality on their tongues and liberty in their speech, something approaching to ordinary honesty r_l_tlght have been expected in the dealings and actions n. 1114 lead e r s o f t h e nat i onal revolt ; a little disregard of self 1d ant ipathy to gain, and a arstat di...1 Piltri° " B4 l evinced by the haters of despotism, the op posers of the oppressor, and these noble minded I °Yers of common liberty. How lamentably then roust we he disappointed, when we find the very reverse of all this, the only remarkable feature ilt their actions and minds ; when all their the boasted liberality evaporates in pocked }?refits of the loans raised for the establishment of public `"rth diverting the money from the purposes in tended, arid in the case of Greece, the very unhappy and noble -minded descendants of the heroes of past it gee l left to shift for themselves, a prey to that desola tor of towns and spoiler of the fatherless, the ruthless t lar tAillm, or the haughty domineering of the barbarous ",ULTAN of the T ur k s .

We are here taught to perceive that if abuses exist ut established Governments, still greater ones are per "litted b eneat h the councils of a Revolutionary Junta. de if, indeed, a mi x t ure o f pu bli c v i r tue with public delinquency is to be found in the long annals of an ' "lit monarchies, that the brief history of the govern tnent of the men of a revolution is marked with quite 'le Much vice, and but a very sp ar i ng p or tion of that Publi c virtue and public spirit, the supposed posses , - ': 11 1 of which b a th set t h ese men in the high places. ;vs rej o i ce at these disclosures, and hope it may serve ° tehn a portion of th a t w ild ent h us i asm i n th e Greek 5 stiati with whi c h thi s an d ot h er countr i es are a ff ecte d ; an enthusiasm which has confounded facts and circum d nt lees, which even st ill h oo d w i nk the ju d gment an d ec!ive the un d erstanding. Not in Greece alone this degenerated spirit to ha found, eve '' 111 the new ls ßepublics of South Ame rico it may be traced ' leading to a breach of the public faith, and a total nattention to the fulfilment of en gageaments solemnly contracted in an hour of fearful ; engagements the mom sacred as being made under circumst a n ces w hi ch might have led t o a total advanced for the advantage loss of the vast property of these Republics. We need but look to 'N ' t and Colombia for this, and if an example of ag.7r l e c s 'o Ilion is desired, the war between Buenos Ayres - and Brazil for the possession of the province of the Banda Oriental, is at hand to answer the demand. The pro. *ince indeed b y right b e longs to n e ith er power. But of the two, Brazil is without doubt possessed of the luster claim. Buenos Ayres has no right, nor even the shadow of right, except the principle of public ex. Pediency.

COURT OF COMMON PLEAS.—(Titts EAT.) ,Sittings at Nifii Prins, before the LORD Cum JUSTICE and a Special Jury.) rAmettlx V. ATTY. This was an action of trover to recover the vales of 680 sacks. Mr. Seeant VAUGWLN steel th.”l.;,...Aat mi psalsts W' * 3 a Hemp anu cloth actor at wileennitne, the defendant was, in 1824, the Sheriff of Worcester, and merely a nominal defendant in this action, the goods being obtained under a fraudulent intention. In April 1821, a person named Stanton was introduced by a Mr. Burridge to the plaintiff's warehouse as a large corn facto r an d miller in Worcester, and consequently in the habit of using a great number of sacks. He wished to knew if the plain tiff could supply him at a more reasonable rate than what he could purchase them for in the country ; the plaintiff and Stanton agreed to the purchase of 580 sacks, and also to pay money for them. Stanton gave the name of Ma ther and Co. of the East India Chambers as a reference; the plaintiff sent his son to Mather and Co. who gave Stanton a most excellent character, and stated that they had dealt most extensively with him for many years; the next day Stanton came to settle for the sacks and said that he had unfortunately been paying away all his ready cash for custom duties, and had nothing but bills drawn on persons in Worcestershire ; as the plaintiff had received such a cha racter from Mather and Co., he did not hesitate to take the bill, which was for 841., drawn on J. Packwood, in Worcester; unfortunately for the plaintiff, Stanton on passing the stable door saw a pony, which Stanton's son took a fancy to ; Stanton at first seemed angry with his son for thinking about keeping, as he said, in these hard times, more " cats than caught mice;" but on being again solicited by the son, asked the plaintiff if he chose to dis pose of it; the plaintiff not having any particular use for the pony, said, that he should not object to sell it at a fair price ; plaintiff then invited Stanton into the house to take a glass of wine and talk about the pony, which he agreed to purchase at the price asked by the plaintiff; Stanton next admired the wine, and expressed an inten tion that he had of setting his eldest son up in business as a wine -merchant, and how glad he should be to purchase some wine of the quality of the wine he had been re galed with by the plaintiff, who having several pipes lying in the docks, agreed to sell Stanton one of them for 1201. Stanton, says the Learned Sergeant,had not only purchased a quantity of sacks, a pony, and a pipe of wine, but he had not yet fi nished his purchases, for on passing through the shop, he cast his eye on a piece of canvass, and said it would do to cover some of his craft, and had no objection to purchase that also; this was agreed upon, and Stanton gave another bill for 291. accepted by a J. Bedford, payment for the pony and the canvass. Th e of Stanton to purchase all things that came i n willingness of his way, took the attention of the plaintiff, and he thought it necessary to make enquiries as to the respectability of Mather and Co., to whom Stanton had referred, and found that they were worse than no reference at all, for they had not the least respectability attached to their firm. This circumstance naturally opened the eyes of the plain tiff, and although the pony an d sacks had been sent off, he w ent immediately to stop the delivery of them, and succeeded in prevailing on the carrier to restore the pony, but with respect to the sa cks, he was not so fortunate, for th ey Stanton's. i n d e mnified, and the action were taken under an execu tion, b y a creditor of The sheriff was was bro il _ ght against him for the value .

Air. Sergeant CROSS said, that this witness's evidence did not pr o ve that he received the warrant either from the Sheriff or his Under Sheriff. The LORD Cutzr JUSTICE, in looking over the notes of Mr. Justice Park, made on a former trial of this cause, found that this witness deposed to having delivered the warrant to the Sheriff at Stratford.on-st Examined by the Loan CHIEF JUSTICE—The warrant was to levy on the goods of John Stanton for 2031. 19s. sd. at the suit of Wm. Reynolds. Two Solicitort were called. who denoted to Stanton'a &rowing - . a bankrupt in 1814 an d 182 4,'and to there being no dlvidenu under either of the commissions. Mr. Sergeant Cnoss, in addressing the Jury for the defendant said, it may be that the goods were obtained fraudulently from the plaintiff, yet the plaintiff may not have a just datoie of action a g ainst the High Sheriff of the County of Warwick, the Sheriff had a proviso put into his handl, to seise on the property of John Stanton ; these goods had been Stanton'. property; the goods were not on their transit from the buyer to the seller, they were actually d e li vere d at Birmingham; the plaintiff had suffered this man, who was not to b e trusted, to have goods to the amount of 1001.; no notice had been given to the Sheriffs' officers of the goods being the plaintiff's property, the person who sued out the warrant, was a bona fide creditor; under these circumstances, they had no right to set up a fraudulent sale, the goods were in the plaintiffs possession ; neith e r were they his property, and, in point of law, th e officer was bound to tell. The Loan CHIEF JUSTICE said, that the question was whether or not the goods were the property of Stanton : it was certain that no property could pass by fraud, and the most gross fraud had been committed in this case, and which subjected some of the parties to transportation. The Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff—Damages, 941,- OLD BAILEY SESSIONS.-(THI3 DAN.) (Before Mr. Justice PA AA and Baron GARR° w.) POST -OFFICE ROBBERY. ---- --- William Garlick stood indicted for stealing a letter con taining hank notes of the value of 1,000/., which came into his possession by ♦irtue of his employment at the General Post-office on the fith of December last. Counsel for the prosecution, Messrs. BOLLAND, BAR NARD, and the SOLICITOR-GENERAL; for the prisoner, Messrs. ADOLPHUS, BRODERICK, and LAW. Mr. BARNARD opened the pleadings. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL stated the case for the pro secution ; the prisoner he said was indicted for a capital offence, on an Act passed in the 52d year of his late Ma jesty's reign, and the prosecution was at the instance of the Postmaster-General. The property stolen consisted of bank notes to the amount of 1,000/., a bond, and two bills of exchange, belonging to the firm of Sparrow and Co., in Newcastle-upon-the-Line; these were enclosed in a letter put into the post-office on the 7th of December, by a clerk in the house of Sir R. C. Glyn and Co., and ought to have reached its destination at twelve o'clbek on the following day, but not a vestige had been traced re specting them from that time until October last, when a person named Calligan, who shared in the booty, made a discovery that led to this prosecution. John Williams, a clerk in the Bank of England, examined by Mr. BOLLAND.—Exchanged the 1,000/. note now produced on the 7th of December, and gave in exchange one note of 300/. one of 2001. and ten of 50/. to a clerk from the house of Glyn & Benjamin Laurence Lowell.—Now as accountant in the Bank of England, was a clerk in the house of Glyn & Co. ; on the 7th December last got the 1,000/. note, now produced, changed in the Bank of England, and received the notes mentioned by the last witness in lieu, which he put on Mr. Druitt's desk, who was the corresponding clerk of Glyn & Co. J. Dennis Danniel.--A clerk in the house of Glyn & Co. ; en closed the notes which last witness received in exchange for the 1,000/. note, together with a bond, and two bills of exchange, in a letter directed to Sparrow & Co. on the 7th of December i put the letter, as was the practice, on a desk where letters for the post-office were left. Hobert Bailie was in the habit of taking letters from the house of Glyn and Co., to the Post Office, took all those which were on the letter desk, on the '7th of December, in a bag to the Post Office ; but could not say whether the letter in question was among them or not. William Key was a clerk in the Liverpool division of the Post OAsce r which illtltr—kleffS-414enterrtimissisio.xnent'atrattikt; on the 7th of Docent Cross-examined by Mr. Bsonsaicx.—There were 12 or IS persons employed in sorting the letters for that division, but all iu one room ; besides these, there were six messengers, who carry the letters when sorted, to the clerk of the division, who taxes and marks them. There were about SO persons altogether, through whose hands the letters go. Elisabeth Brothers was post mistress of Newcastle-upon-the- Line on the 7th of December, opened the letter bag from London on the 9th, which was sealed as usual ; there was an enquiry made for a letter for Sparrow and Co. on that day immediately after the lettere had been sorted. Wm. Tyson was a clerk in the house of Sparrow and Co., who expected a letter containing a bond and bills of exchange on the Bth of December. Witness enquired for such a letter at the Post office, but had not received it. Benjamin Vandergoueht was President of the the Inland De partruent in the Post-office ; the prisoner was employed as a facer and alio as collector of sorted letters on the 7th of December; in that department, his duty was to go round to all the divisions and collect the sorted letters ; mistakes frequently arose respecting the Newcastlo.upon-the-Line and Newcastle-upon-Tyne letters; when such did arise, such letters came-into the hands of the prisoner. Cross-examined by Mr. Anocenos—The prisoner had been employed a year or two, and conducted himself with extreme pro priety, and was esteemed by every person. Daniel Callagan being called, the Counsel for the defendants oh jected to his competency, on the grounds of his having been con victed of a misdemeanour that disqualified him. The Clerk of Clerkenwell Sessions produced the record of the conviction of Daniel Collagen, in the year 1807, for issuing counterfeit money, and sentenced to six mouths' imprisonment.—Mr. Beeby, the keeper of Clerkenwell Gaol, identified Callagan as the man. Baron GARROW reproved the Clerk of the Sessions for bring ing iu the original record without an order of Court. Ma. ADOLYNUI then Admired the ;Court respecting the in competency of Callagan to give evidence. Counterfeiting coin (he observed) involved the same principle as forgery and perjury, and was a species of the erimos falsi, which, without a pardon, totally disqualified kim from giving evidence. Mr. Baonteicx and Mr. LAW spoke on the tame side. The SOLICITOR.GINZRAL said that the crimen falsi watt handed down from the Civil Law, and had no definite meaning in our Court, The guilt of obtaining money under false pretences was liable to the same objection here mad.. lie was not aware of any instances of a misdemeanour, disqualifying any person from giving testimony, except by the statute, and ha hoped the Court, in the absence of any decision in point, would not entertain the objection. Mr. Justice PARK had no doubt as to the competency of the witness; he expected a more accurate definition of the (Timen falsi from the Learned Counsel. The instan ces quote d f rom Phil lips on evidence (which was no authority, an d h e h ope d would not for some year. to come) were not sufficiently descriptive of the nature of the crimes fdsi. The statute itself, which rendered the uttering of bad money a misdemeanour, by no means implied that the convict should be infamous. • Mr. Baron GAII.IOW was of the lams opinion.

Prisoner said he would he o n th e l oo k out; about three months after the prisoner came to me between nine and tan at night, at my stall in Fleet-market, and asked me to walk with him to John's-strict, where he had a parcel which he believed contained 4 , or boot. ; T went with him and he showed me something in a white paper, having neither seal nor direction; we both went to a Mr. walah'e house, who opened the parcel ; and counted out 1,0001. in notes; there was also a bond, which the prisoner burned, along with other. papers; we then went to the Ivy public-house, in Goswell-street, where Goodman was; I called Goodman out, something passed then between me and Goodman ; I went back and told Walsh what Goodman had offered for the notes, who gave them to nie to fetch to Goodman ; the prisoner was not present during this conversation with Walsh ; after I bad given the notes to Goodman I came back, but bad no i cOtieeteetioti with the prieolter ea the subject until the leitavehtt night, when the prisoner and I went for the money ; received from Walsh 2501., and the prisoner 350/. in swvereigne ; this was at Walsh's house; 1j do not know how the notes were changed; I saw no more of Goodman on this subject ; I met Good man and Garlick some time after this transaction by Rd dent, at a public house in the City-road. I have fre quently seen Goodman and Walsh together. I have visited them at their own houses. Air. Justice PaaF here asked Counsel for the prosecution, if they could riot prove their case without this witness, being replied to in the negative, hix r rdship addressed the Jury, and said, that as the present witness was an accomplice, it was necessary fur th e !validity of his . firnony, that he should be cortbficytdt e d in tnrnu!teri4,l midi, hut in this case there was nothing to drlrtouteit that—the mere r.7.!= t of his having an oppor tunity from his situation in the Post-office of set7t'th l s the letter in question was not sufficient to establish hisguilt ; he there ptt di rected the Jury to acquit him.—Not Goodman was then put to the Bar, but as the evidence against him was the same as the last, the Solicitor-General declines' proceed, and Mr. Baron Garrow directed the Jury to acquit him. Verdict—Not Guilty. NEW COURT. William Powell, Richard Edwards, and John Harris, were convicted of stealing, on the 6th of October, a comb, ►alued Is. 10d. from the shop of George Hicks, turner and brush-maker, Gray's Inn-lane. James Bennett was indicted for stealing two cakes of soap, the property of James Birk, tallow chandler, his master.

TRIAL OF THE WHOLESALE RESURRECTIONISTS AT LIVERPOOL.—On Friday, Oct. 27, James Donaldson, ago! 25, was indicted for having " conspired with divers other persons lately at Liverpool, and unlawfully, wilfully, and indecently d"g' disinterred, and carried away certain dead bodies." After A tail- ous and uninteresting trial, the Jury returned a verdict of Guilty, on which the Recorder sentenced the prisoner to be impriso n '" and kept to hard labor in the House of Correction for twelve calendar months, and to pay a fine of 501, and to be further im prisoned till such fine w ere pa i d. , MItZLESEX SESSIOVS—(Tnis Dior.)

To be brought up for judgment on the anjpurnment day. W,n. Brow* and John Roberts were indicted for procuring, with intent to circulate, 41 counterfeit shillings, and four counter feit sovereigns. They were taken in company, and the money found on the prisoner Roberts, who, when arrested, said he re ceived it from his brother, pointing to Brown. This the latter denied, but he was known to the officers, having been convicted of the same offence twice before, under the name of Somers. They were bath found Guilty. Brown was sentenced to six months' hard labour, and Roberts to three months, Ann Brown was convicted of the same offence, having pro cured eleven sixpences. The Jury recommended her to mercy. Two montheimprisounient.. I Samuel Banks, an athletic seafaring man, was indicted :or alt i n d et zt, 210 , 1111 t on Mary Duffield, on the 10th of this mouth. Mr. Putil.tts—Gentlemen of the Jury, you have heard front the clerk the natal:, of the indictment, and it is my duty to state to you more particularly the crime for which the prisoner stands et the bar. I have witnessed,, during my practice in courts of Justice, numerous charges of this crime, all differing more or lees in atrocity, but I never heard a case more atrocious than this ; it is a great thing for the man who stands at that bar that instead of being indicted for a misdemeanour he is not tried at the Oh! Bailey for his life; for, if the deta3 in my brief be true, and had been proved, nothing could have suet,' him from the punishment of his brutality. Miss Duffield, the pros,,outrie, is a school-mis mistreas, living at No. 2, 'York-streCts Commercial-road, in partnership with a Miss Spencer, and had the misfortune to take this man into her house to hot°. It will be necessary to infirm you, that Miss Duffield has o.`te misfortune which was never yet a crime--I mean that of not being very rich. She bad in consequence been sometimes in the habit of taking in persons to lodge. She had known the prisons for years. She had known his family in Norfolk, and being a te atitic of that county herself, hail always viewed him in the light; of a brother. On the 10th of October he supped with her, 'and had taken something to drink with the prosecutor, who had her self taken a glass of rum and water. They had for supper a pot of porter, of which but little was drank, consequently the pri soner oottld not plead drunkenness, as an excuse for his ensuing conduct. It was ten o'clock, and she reminded him it was time to go to bed. Miss Spencer, who generally slept in the house, hail s g h o e n i e w to i v o is s it p s e o n n e l e e r c:tds c . om il in l a te i t i r ie. ner l a i s iu ketLM ii i t s t s ie D sui nffi pec eld tin i g f his art, said, " if she is not home by ha.lf-past ten, she will not come horns at all." She took candle to light him to bed. Having lighted hint up stairs, she put the candle on the chimney piece. She said, " Good d a :tht, ;" he bade her " good night," but she found en getSng to the door, that it was fastened, and that she could not set out. I shall not tell you what he did, 1 Trail leave that to the pro:seen trix. A repetition of such details cannot but be offeusire to the ears of delicacy and humanity, and I can tell every one of the prisoner's friends who have been intereging themselves on this occasion with the prosecutrix, that a law - process shall be served ou each of them. She said she would resist while life inspired her, and did resist. Her screams were heard on the other side of the street by a person who desired the watchman to break open the floor; but he had km a foolish notion into his bead that if he did hear the word " murder" called, he had not the authority. The prosecutrix, however, by some means got away from his greet), and for the purpose of escaping from his violence, told him that she would return and sleep with him. How far that was her inten tion, however, her following conduct will show. She rushed into the street, and, agitated and distracted as she was, went to the friend's house at Poplar, where Miss Spencer was stopping ;. she related to them the way in which she had been treated, and they immediately went to her house, which they broke opeu, and in which there was no one but the three children. The prisoner was ultimately taken in some ship, and conveyed to the Manna Police-office, where the worthy Magistrate acted in the justest manner. So great was his opinion of the violence used towards a defenceless woman, that he not only bound the prisoner over in the safest manner to appear, but also bound over Miss Duffield in 300/. to prosecute. Mary Duffield confirmed this statement, and described the vio lence. He was the last man she would ever have suspected of such villainy. The other facts were all proved by different witnesses. Mr. AnoLenus, for the prisoner, made a most eloquent appeal to the Jury, in which he did not attempt to defend, but pleaded the frailty of human nature in extenuation of his conduct. He was found Guilty, and sentenced to two years' imprisonm ant. MAY rw HIGII lator,---We arc authorised to say, that, in a day or two, a full statement of the whole transaction will be laid before the Public, who, in jus tice to the parties, ought to suspend their opinion till its appearance.
